En este artículo, se revisa la investigación llevada a cabo en el campo de la psicología evolutiva en el desarrollo del sentido subjetivo de la identidad nacional en niñoslas y adolescentes. A lo largo del artículo se ilustra cómo recientes estudios han cuestionado el tradicional enfoque piagetiano según el cual las actitudes hacia los otros grupos se desarrollan a través de una secuencia de estadios fijos. Además, la reciente investigación en el campo sugiere que la familia, la escuela y los medios de comunicación tienen un considerable impacto, mayor al postulado por la teoría Piagetiana tradicional, en el desarrollo del sentido subjetivo de la identidad nacional.
